Oh, no problem. We'll get a methane-releasing photosynthesizing bacterium out of the biofuels lab and into the air, a lightweight and UV-resistant one with a rapid doubling time, drift that into the intertropical convergence where the cumulus gets to the edge of the stratosphere, and we'll have that massive push for you ....

Eli Rabett, a not quite failed professorial techno-bunny who finally handed in the keys and retired from his wanna be research university. The students continue to be naive but great people and the administrators continue to vary day-to-day between homicidal and delusional without Eli's help. Eli notices from recent political developments that this behavior is not limited to administrators. His colleagues retain their curious inability to see the holes that they dig for themselves. Prof. Rabett is thankful that they, or at least some of them occasionally heeded his pointing out the implications of the various enthusiasms that rattle around the department and school. Ms. Rabett is thankful that Prof. Rabett occasionally heeds her pointing out that he is nuts.
